The tongue was just like beef jerky. A person's tongue was actually very long since a large part of it was in the throat. It would even look like a tenderloin if it was pulled out. I honestly wouldve thought this tongue was dried at if it wasn't for the head.
Even a tongue mummified before the year 2000 wouldnt have been preserved so well. This tongue was wrapped in a completely moldy and rotting rag, which was also made of modern materials. It hadnt completely rotted through, which ant it wasnt that old. It had probably been left there when Uncle Three went in at that ti. Moreover, the rag may have been specially preserved with alcohol.
I looked between the leather figurine woman's gaping mouth and the tongue in my hand before taking a deep breath. What did this an?
It seed to indicate that Uncle Three pulled out a living persons tongue and stuffed it inside the leather figurine woman when he entered the tomb chamber.
First, why do this? Second, whose tongue was it?
This was beyond the scope of my understanding and I didnt have any clues at all. Why would a leather figurine woman be specially marked on the mural? Why would Uncle Three move it from the tomb chamber? Why did he discard it in the waterway? Why was there a fresh tongue in the figurines body? And why had a fulaiyi been placed above the coffin?
I had never encountered a situation where there werent any clues or logical reasoning at all. I lay down on the ground and rubbed my hands through my hair to try and calm myself down.
After doing this a few tis, I suddenly heard another cough co from behind . I looked up and saw Bai Haotian standing behind . I imdiately got up and saw him looking at strangely. I smiled apologetically, "Im sorry. So things just dont make sense."
Bai Haotian looked at and suddenly gave a shy smile, "Are you Little Master Three?"
Obviously. If I'm not Wu Xie, then why did you let in?
I nodded and he said, "I always thought you were so other relative of Er Yes. I watched you for a long ti before I found out that you were Wu Xie."
"Oh," I said.
He suddenly took out a duty book, "I really like you. Can you give your signature?"
I paused, "What am I signing?"
"Autograph."
"Autograph your dick," I said angrily.
"If you dont sign, Ill call Er Ye." Bai Haotian wasnt angry at all. In fact, he was very sincere as he handed the duty book.
I took a deep breath and cald down. When I thought about it, I realized that Uncle Two knowing I was here would cause all sorts of complications. I bit back my anger and picked up the duty book. He imdiately leaned over and said, "When you sign it, make it out to Bai Haotian and say I hope you find a boyfriend soon."
It was only in this mont that I realized people who asked for a signature almost always wanted to sign IOUs. But this guy was asking to sign because he liked ?
I had never encountered this kind of situation before. After thinking about it, I crookedly wrote my signature on the duty book as he happily circled around twice. I looked at him and then at the thing I had just signed and suddenly realized that sothing was wrong.
This boy wasnt a man, but a woman!
I thought she was a man because her hair was cut so short and she was wearing the warehouse uniform.
I returned the duty book to her and watched as she carefully looked it over twice. "The characters look really good. Little Master Three, what are you doing here? Why were you lying on the ground?"
It was always hard to be an to those who liked you, so I couldn't bring myself to be angry at her. I looked at her and suddenly ca up with an idea.
"You won't tell my Uncle Two I've been here, will you?"
"No, but the surveillance caras got it all."
"That part doesn't matter. Hes not diligent enough to check the caras. Just dont tell him." As I spoke to her, I picked up the leather figurine woman.
Bai Haotian suddenly exclaid, "Little Master Three, what are you doing?! If sothing goes missing from the warehouse, Im screwed!"
"Ill bring it back in three days. I guarantee itll be exactly the sa."
"How is that possible? Her mouth wasnt that big when she ca in." The little girl was very frightened.
I patted her, "This is the fee for my autograph. Keep it secret." I picked up the leather figurine woman and walked out. There were so many unrelated clues that there was no way to join them. But my intuition said that this was a kind of sorcery, which no longer fell under the category of feng shui. I needed to find a master to ask. It was impossible to dictate everything, so it was better to take it all with .

Hmmm wonder if that tongue is Er Jin's? This is also episode 18 of the drama at about 36:00 if you all want to watch Wu Xie being all adorable going "Xiao Ge, I have a fan" lol
